Additionally, Skype for Android now allows for video conversations to be made in both portrait and landscape modes, but the feature is still not enabled on all supported devices. Other goodies that have been included are the ability to zoom in by double-tapping, to group recent calls by contact, and to modify instant messages. Support for Bluetooth headsets has been improved as well.

Sadly, advertisements have now been added to Skype for Android, but the only users who will be seeing them are those without any Skype credit or without a subscription. Still, if that doesn't bother you, feel free to check out the app in the Android Market by hitting the source link below.

SoyCider--Thanks for the comment...Rookie mistake....I will thumbs you up for effort...The major feature in Skype they are referencing is the Video capability now placed on the phones running Gingerbread with a front facing camera. So now I can make video calls via the NEW SKYPE APP on my Bionic to another Bionic or any supported user on a LTE network not having to use Facetime tied to a Apple iphone tied to a WIFI network....
